We describe three patients with congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG) type Ia, all of whom had persistent hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia responding to diazoxide therapy as a common feature. The first patient, an infant girl, presented with recurrent vomiting, failure to thrive, liver impairment, hypothyroidism and a pericardial effusion. The second patient, also female, had a milder disease with single organ involvement, presenting as isolated hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia, not associated with any cognitive impairment. The third patient, a boy presented with multi-organ manifestations including congenital hypothyroidism, persistent hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia, coagulopathy, olivopontocerebellar hypoplasia and recurrent pancreatitis. All three patients had a type 1 serum transferrin isoform pattern, and were subsequently found to have low phosphomannomutase activity, confirming the diagnosis of CDG type Ia. Our findings emphasize that CDG should be considered as a differential diagnosis in patients with persistent hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia and that it may even occasionally be the leading symptom in CDG Ia.
